Just tell me if we do somehow win the FA Cup and finish off the rest of these Euro scrubs you won't brag about winning the double like Pool fans do.

Tough loss... Aguero is a bitch and Torres should've gotten the penalty, but can't blame the loss on that entirely.



I was just thinking of this possibility, but what if Chelsea were to buy Michael Bradley? He could fit in to the pivot well or if we go back to a 4-3-3 he could play as a box-to-box mid, although this is just something I want to happen

Michael Bradley

He could definitely fit the role better than who we have now. I feel like this is probably more important than our striker situation now that we have Ba. The lack of support for the front four is pretty clear. Lampard's always going to be attack minded and possibly not here next year. Ramires isn't a good enough tackler imo and doesn't excel in the role. I'm not a fan of Mikel either; he wastes way too many possessions and doesn't have any strong features.

Should offer that much for Paul Pogba. Going to be a superstar.

I feel like Ramires and Mikel need a lesser role also. Ramires is great on the attack and his speed is incredible, but he is just so inconsistent and not great defensively. As for Mikel, I didn't even know he was playing yesterday while watching the game. He does nothing to say "damn good job Mikel."

All in all- I would love to see an American, especially Bradley, play for Chelsea

No action to be taken against Aguero.

Dortmund have apparently bid 17mil for De Bruyne. I hope if there is one person with a brain cell working the front office at Chelsea that they will not sell him. He's a damn fine player.

Ridiculous. Is there any soccer governing body that isn't a complete joke? How do people that are so stupid get to be in positions of so much power?

Where does he fit in on this team? I haven't seen him enough to know where/how he plays. What we really need is a wide player with pace. We already have three good young attacking mids who like to play centrally but Moses is the only player we have who will give us width and he's pretty good but not consistent starting XI quality imo.

He can bring this. Everything I've read says that he's been the best player at Werder Bremen this season. There seems to be a ton of interest from the top Bundesliga clubs in him like Dortmund who think he's worth a good chunk of change.

If nothing else he's incredibly solid depth. I also like the Belgian dynamic that Chelsea has going on at the moment.

Mikel needs to stay (just signed a new contract) and be a role player or a come off the bench player. He is not an every week starter. Great for the lesser premier league clubs but he should be a bench warmer through tough competition.
Ramires is very sloppy but there is just something about him that makes sense. No matter who tries to change Chelsea, we always end up playing better when we defend and play the counter. Ramires makes the counter attack tick. He might fall over his bloody feet a lot, but he is the reason late in the game that were able to provide heat when we need to. I swear his motor never runs out. We need Ramires, don't care what anyone says, we need him... Get him a damn personal coach for all I care.

On a side note, Is it me or does Ramires get a yellow almost every game?
